Anticipation

The kids and I leave for vacation tomorrow morning. We get to see grandparents and as everyone knows that means being spoiled rotten and taken to the movies and ice skating and monster trucks and cookies and all sorts of amazing. All week they've asked me how many days until we leave. All day today Charlotte asked me to help her pack. We packed all their clothing this afternoon. We just finished putting together their on the airplane entertainment backpacks. Greg keeps walking around the house wearing his. New things they have in said backpacks: fairies of pixie hollow sticker activity book, vehicles sticker activity book, a book of pk-1 level mazes, Tinkerbell fruit snacks, and Thomas fruit snacks.

The energy in this house is higher perhaps even than Christmas Eve. I'm not sure if it's for vacation or for the entertainment on the airplane.

Let's just hope nobody gets so excited they puke tonight.
